AT&T II Telephone User Manual


 
System Programming Reference
System Programming changes settings for the system as a whole, or for individual lines or extensions. You can also use System Program-
ming to set up dialing restrictions, define groups, and set up optional equipment. Button-Down Mode (#723) can be activated (if needed)
before Line Ringing is set. Use Copy Settings (#399) to copy settings from one extension to another.
Place the Programming Overlay on the dial pad of the MLS display phone at extension jack 10 or 11

SYSTEM TIME
Sets the time to appear on display phones
(MLS-34D and MLS-12D). Enter four digits
in 24-hour military notation, from 0000 for
12 midnight to 2359 for 11:59 p.m. (for
example, 8:15 a.m. = 0815). System
displays times as a.m. or p.m.
ROTARY DIALING TIMEOUT
Change the factory setting only if you
have trouble calling out on rotary lines
with standard touch-tone phones. (For
example, if users dial slowly and calls are
not completed or are connected to wrong
numbers, lengthen the timeout.) Use only
if the Dial Mode (#201) for at least one line
is set to "rotary."
BUTTON-DOWN MODE
Sets extension jacks 11-33 so that only the
extension’s primary line (under the bottom
leftmost programmable button on an MLS- or
MLC-model phone) rings; any other lines
assigned to this extension will not ring unless
you use Line Ringing to change them. At
extension jack 10, the extension’s primary line
rings immediately and all other lines ring after
a short delay.

extensions.
